In this study, ten marble samples collected from different regions of Turkey were tested in the laboratory in terms of physical properties and P-S wave velocity. The destructive method used to determine the physical properties of marbles is time-consuming, can only be tested in the laboratory, and high cost of equipment. For this reason, in order to obtain an easy to apply method, not expensive and time
consuming, the relationship between saturated and dry P-S wave velocity and physical properties was investigated by regression analysis. Results of regression analyses showed satisfactory correlations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
